Favorite Albums & Shows of 2016 According to Johnny Cole, Stephen Anderson & Robby Amonett.
Johnny Cole has constructed a year-end album list since 1979. In recent years, he has selected “Complicated Game” by James McMurtry (#1 in 2015), “Sideshow Love” by Will Kimbrough (#1 in 2014) and “The Ghost of Escondido” by Escondido (#1 in 2013) as his top albums of the year. As years go by, often albums grow on you and become more enjoyed. Throughout the year, Johnny is constantly checking out new music. The following list is his best attempt at charting his favorites.

* All albums were officially released between the beginning of January, 2016 through the end of the year. Some might be listed as 2015, but were not officially released until after the new year. Example: “Cautionary Tale” has a publishing date on package that reads 2015, but the album was released on January 15, 2016. Some albums were made available as a special edition in late 2015, but were not officially released until 2016. Example: “Paradise Right Here” by Willie Sugarcapps. Their album was released in April of 2016.

* Obviously it is impossible to listen to everything released during the year, but I do make a notable attempt at doing so. It is also difficult to give such a number of albums a significant amount of attention and several will be over time.
